SPEAR's response to COVID-19
SPEAR are still offering our services to those who are currently experiencing or have recently experienced homelessness. However we have had to make some changes to adapt to the current situation:
Attending the Hub (our drop-in centre on Heath Road) is by appointment only
We are currently not recruiting new volunteers, but will continue to work with our current volunteers
We are currently reducing the type of physical donations we can accept. We will not be able to accept clothing, bedding or furniture. However we are in need of food and toiletries

During this time of continued service to our clients, we have had to cancel many events and activities that helped fund these services.

With your help, we can help even more people. Please support our appeal
